DAILY HOLY MASS READINGS:
My Beloved, I make the pledge of Joshua and the people of
Israel my own today. As for me and my family,
we shall serve the Lord. I acknowledge
wonders You have done for me. I thank
You for sparing my soul from eternal death and setting me free from the slavery
of sin. Thank You Lord.
My Beloved, if every Christian family took these verses
written by St. Paul to heart and lived but its wisdom and truth, every family
would be a reflection of the Holy Family in Nazareth.
Both husband and wife are in equal partnership in a marriage
although their roles are different. A
wife nurtures, a husband provides and protects.
The wife leans on her husband not because she is weak but because she
loves and so she yields in love. Her
husband is a much in need of the strength that is hers. If the strength that she possesses in
unavailable to him then he suffers and cannot be the complete man he is called
to be. They need each other, they
complement each other. They complete and
perfect each other.
I sing with the psalmist and praise and thank You for all
You have done for me. I praise and thank
You for hearing my prayers and hastening to my side to rescue me. Each time I called, You heard and You helped
me. I am not discouraged for You are always
with me and I have Your word that You will never abandon me.
My Beloved, for the privilege and the gift of being
Catholic, I bow down and humbly thank You.
For the gift of the Holy Eucharist and the Holy Spirit that makes my
belief in Your Real Presence in what continues to look like ordinary bread and
wine after the Consecration, I thank You.
For the food that gives eternal life, I thank You and I bow down in
adoration and worshipful love to the Father who conceived this stupendous
plan. Thank You.
